Source: Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics, 2002 – 2005: by courtesy of professor Mohamed Tawfic Ahmed, Suez Canal UniversityEgypt heading for extreme water scarcity.freshwater stressThe Nile Delta is one of the oldest intensely cultivated areas on earth. It is very heavily populated, with population densities up to 1600 inhabitants per square kilometer. The low lying, fertile floodplains are surrounded by deserts. Only 2,5% of Egypt's land area, the Nile delta and the Nile valley, is suitable for intensive agriculture. Most of a 50 km wide land strip along the coast is less than 2 m above sea-level and is protected from flooding by a 1 to 10 km wide coastal sand belt only, shaped by discharge of the Rosetta and Damietta branches of the Nile. Erosion of the protective sand belt is a serious problem and has accelerated since the construction of the Aswan dam Rising sea level would destroy weak parts of the sand belt, which is essential for the protection of lagoons and the low-lying reclaimed lands. The impacts would be very serious: One third of Egypt's fish catches are made in the lagoons. Sea level rise would change the water quality and affect most fresh water fish. Valuable agricultural land would be innundated. Vital, low-lying installations in Alexandria and Port Said would be threatened. Recreational tourism beach facilities would be endangered and essential groundwater would be salinated. Dykes and protective measurements would probably prevent the worst flooding up to a 50 cm sea level rise. However, it would cause serious groundwater salination and the impact of increasing wave action would be serious.gMVI_4655How green is your tech?https://ufbutv.com/2014/09/17/how-green-is-your-tech/

Focus is on what the teacher The instructivist teacher - the sage on the stageThe constructivist teacher - the guide on the sideA community of practice requires actitivity and questioning (DM studenst, F2F Sri lanka)In a community of practice the newcomer is regarded as a “legitimate peripheral participant”(LPP), “scaffolded” or guided and supported into the community, meets participants, take part in goal-directed activities and learn in “zones of proximal development (ZPD)”Socio-cultural learning requires collaboration. The students are not competitors. Group work and a grade in common for the group.“It is what the teacher get the students to do in the class that emerged as the strongest component of the accomplished teacher’s repertoire, rather than what the teacher, specifically, does” (Hattie, 2009, p.35) “It is not the knowledge or ideas, but the learner’s construction of knowledge and ideas that is critical”…So often learners become passive recipients of teachers’ lessons…but the aim is to make students active in the learning process – through actions by the teachers and others – until the students reach the stage where they become their own teachers” (Hattie, 2009, p.37)Creativity asks for strategic design of online education21st century skills (Pearson)The DIKW-pyramid: Data - Information - Knowledge - Wisdom: Data can be structured to information.
